McAllen, Texas, 2017 – The McAllen Mayor’s Prayer Luncheon Committee would like to invite the community to the 46th Annual McAllen Mayor’s Prayer Luncheon. The event will be held at the McAllen Convention Center on Tuesday, April 25 from 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
This year’s Keynote Speaker is David A.R. White, the actor, writer and producer of the widely popular film series God’s Not Dead. These films became two of the most successful independent movies of all time, making his studio, Pure Flix Entertainment the largest faith-based film production company in the industry. Pure Flix also released 2016’s successful Hillsong: Let Hope Rise and the highly anticipated April 7 release of The Case for Christ.
David has starred in more than 25 movies and produced 40 films. He is also author of Between Heaven & Hollywood: Chasing Your God-Given Dream, which offers a glimpse of his life, career and family, as well as a perspective on being centered, balanced, and remaining on the path God has set for you.
“Our board is excited to bring this exceptional speaker to our community,” said Board President Elizabeth C. Martinez. “Mr. White’s films are powerful and I believe his message of encouragement and perseverance will inspire our community.”
